ABSTRACT:
An apparatus having an input node and an output node for generating a timing signal. The apparatus includes an enabling circuit, one or more inverters, and one or more capacitive elements. The enabling circuit generates a signal of a first state when one or both of the input node and the output node are of a second state, and generates a signal of the second state when both of the input node and the output node are of the first state. The first state and the second state represent two opposite logic states. The inverters generate opposite state outputs in responsive with their inputs. The inverters are connected in series with a first inverter being responsive to the enabling circuit and a last inverter for generating a signal for the output node. The capacitive elements are connected between a voltage source and one of the inputs of the inverters.
